We warmly welcome all members of the GSA community to Indianapolis! As part of that welcome, we offer registered guests and Penrose Circle Invitees a comfortable Hospitality Suite for rest and relaxation while technical sessions are happening. As a registered guest, you are welcome to attend your companion’s technical session(s), and you will also have admittance to the Exhibit Hall. Activities in the suite include complimentary refreshments, entertaining and complimentary educational seminars, and local experts ready to answer your questions about Indianapolis. Local tours and activities will also be offered for an additional fee. We hope that you take advantage of the tours to learn about the area from one of the knowledgeable tour guides.

Fiber Art

Sun., 4 Nov., 10 a.m., Penrose Guest Hospitality Suite
Each guest will select a variety of colors from a huge assortment of wool fibers. These colorful wool fibers are pulled, by the guest, into various shapes and dimensions, positioned on a backing and ironed to fuse them into place. This creates a one-of-a-kind piece of art that can be inserted into a cardboard frame to create a card to send to a loved one or friend or taken home and framed.
